• Minutes - San Leandro City Council Meeting - June 17, 1996 Page - 7 - • Consent Calendar items related to the City budget were considered following the Public Hearing on adoption of the 1996 -97 Budget. 7. NEW BUSINESS Items Removed from the Consent Calendar. 6.F. Resolution Accepting Ownership of North Offices Building and Parking Area in Civic Center Complex from Redevelopment Agency as Consideration for Reducing Outstanding Debt (provides for transfer of ownership of North Offices Building in exchange for a reduction in Redevelopment Agency debt of $6,593,156). John Jermanis, Finance Director, said the City is accepting ownership of the building from the Agency as an element of the seismic retrofit program. In lieu of renting space to retrofit, 28,000 square feet were added to City Hall; and the way service is provided to the public was changed. Financing was unique; rather than borrow City of San Leandro money for the retrofit, the Redevelopment Agency made debt and is now turning the building over to the City to reduce the amount of debt it owes the City. The Agency owes the same amount of debt, but it is owed via bonds and not to the City. Mayor Corbett said she was happy to see this method for saving funds. • The following Resolution was then introduced: Resolution No. 96 -106, Resolution Accepting Ownership of North Offices Building and Parking Area in Civic Center Complex from Redevelopment Agency as Consideration for Reducing Outstanding Debt (provides for transfer of ownership of North Offices Building in exchange for a reduction in. Redevelopment Agency debt of $6,593,156). (1485/1083) Introduced by Council Member Glaze, who moved its adoption, seconded by Council Member Young, and carried by a majority vote (7). 6.H. Resolution Amending Section 1 of the Pay Plan (provides for previously approved 2% salary increase for non -Y -rated classes represented by San Leandro City Employees Association (SLCEA) and San Leandro Management Organization (SLMO) for period July 1, 1996 through December 31, 1997, as provided in Memoranda of Understanding). Steve Harman, Human Resources Director, said the City Council approved two Memoranda of Understanding in November, 1995, one with the San Leandro City Employees Association and one with the San Leandro Management Group, which ratified the agreement providing for a 2% wage increase effective July 1, 1995 and 1996. This action modifies the Pay Plan to reflect the July 1, 1996, wage increase, which runs through December 1997.
